Is there a way to force a re-scrape of the entire music library again?

I found that I needed to nuke the entire music database in the user profile directory, and then I needed to delete all of the thumbs and artist fan art from the user profile directory as well.

Also for testing purposes I exported my whole collection, nuked the db file, but didn't clear out the various fanart and thumbnail folders 0,1,2,3,4,5 etc. I noticed that after the import some of the pics didn't exactly match what my collection folders were showing, meaning that somehow the library 'remembers' even though the db file is gone.

When I tried the exact same test AND removed the thumbnail and fanart files from the userdata directories then the newly created db was insync.

Did I stumb onto something here or is this already known?

I guess really that this is more of an import issue, however, if I do a full scrape and then I do another full scrape it seems as if the query blows by artisst that it previously determined no items were available. The only way that I found to do a full scrape was to nuke the db, nuke the artist thumbs and fanart then reimport everything. Is there any way to force a re-scrape in this scenario
